Lyndon Johnson, Elisabet Ney, Peter Flawn, Custer, O. Henry, and Joseph Jones (the sage of Waller Creek)--public figures and personal friends interact in the city of Oliphant's imagination....A lengthy proem, set at the grave of Stephen F. Austin in the State Cemetery, contains a brilliant passage about Austin in prison.... The oblique narration is kept on track with masterful transitions....[T]he language is carefully crafted, with interesting and often beautiful sound-play in virtually every line.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e--John Herndon, Austin American-Statesman\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Dave Oliphant\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Alamo Bay Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/12\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 218\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.72lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.50d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781943306107","brand":"Alamo Bay Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46717468967049,"sku":"9781943306107","price":15.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_fa2d39ff-ca1b-4c7c-a8e8-9bd32bdd4772.jpg?v=1778614784","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/austin-a-poem-9781943306107","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
